Weeknight Bolognese Sauce

See Video

Originating in Bologna, Italy, traditional ragù is all about patience and layering flavors. Unlike many tomato-heavy meat sauces, authentic Bolognese relies on a combination of meat, soffritto, dairy, and wine to create its signature richness. This version has been adjusted to use 1 pound of ground beef, making it perfect for a smaller batch while still delivering the depth and character that make this dish an Italian classic.
